Best of the day

Second-base umpire Mike Estabrook called pinch-runner Kyle Kendrick out on a pickoff even though shortstop Jean Segura tagged him without the ball, and Milwaukee held on to beat Philadelphia 4-3 on Saturday.

The next batter doubled before Rodriguez was able to nail down his third straight save. After the game, crew chief Tom Hallion told a pool reporter that it was an incorrect call after looking at a replay.

-- Paul Goldschmidt hit a tie-breaking grand slam in the eighth to lead Arizona to a 12-4 win over the Cubs.

-- B.J. Upton had two hits against Washington, including a game-ending, broken-bat single in the 10th inning, in his return to the Atlanta lineup after being held out of two straight starts because of a season-long slump.
